Alex who was doing a one handstand in his room, was worried about the current events that had transpired. He felt that something bad was about to happen. Since not only did his Dad not return yet, Sir Lyner left, and Instructor Jay disappeared. He was also worried about the current status of his relationship with Rachel. A few days ago, Alex finally understood that he has feelings of liking Rachel as a woman. Yet even with this knowledge he didn't know what to do with it.
He was also scared of Rachel finding out the true purpose of why he was protecting her. It is true that he is protecting her now because of his feelings for her, but that was not so in the beginning. In the beginning he merely associated with Rachel because of his mission.
Now that he actually has feelings for her, finishing the mission might prove even more difficult. Alex has great success in completing missions because he did things in an efficient and logical way that was within the parameters of the mission.
